Saturday Night Boxing In Tampa Bay

Does any one even know when boxing was created? "Boxing was created in ethiopia approx 6000 BC and expanded to Egypt and eventually to the mediterranean. The ancient greeks developed this as a sport also practising ancient olympics and with christianity it almost disappeared, until it was resurfaced by james figg in the 17th century."

This would be my first real professional boxing event I've been too and let me tell you something it wouldn't be the last.The crowd screaming,the DJ playing music and  the extrances were great.The war between two men going head to toe in a match to the Death, oh ok well not so much but it was live.I have never meet so many people who knew boxers and supported them abundantly.Before we begin tonights event I want to thank all the round card girls,Bless your little hearts.Lets start with our first fight was a little boring Sherali vs Sergio no real action.The fight between my boys brother was awesom, Lamar vs Roy.Now this was some big boys heavyweights. Lamar (Tampa native) did win the fight but took four low blows and was moving in slow motion and the ref even took off a point.Within that mix I meet Winkie,Lacy,Camacho Sr,there and Winkies family member Woods threw a straight hook to knock out this fighter named Wahar.Nick Iannuzzi Tampa native got a second round TKO against this character from OH named Alexander.There was even a Christian fighter named Willis(FTMyers) who destroy Geraci(S.C.) with a T.K.Oin first round. The main event was raw,it was a 8 round welterweight. A St. Pete native Thurman faceoff with Brazilian Barros. Barros showed that he can take a punch, I kid you not the 7th round was insane.Thurman hit this guy so hard I thought he broke his hand,you ever hard the sound of a fastball in a catchers glove exactly the same noise and knocked Barros down for a quick eight count.The guy was still fighting and it came down to the judges.Thurman got the win but he showed lack of power.You cant beat a 20.00 dollar admission and six matches.
